Oakhurst's retirees, tourism workers and foothill families have a small local clinic network and rely on Fresno for specialists, and Highway 41 makes the trip straightforward. A proper osteoporosis evaluation looks for a cause. Vitamin D deficiency, hyperparathyroidism, thyroid over-replacement, low testosterone or estrogen, celiac disease and steroid medications all weaken bone, and treating the cause is often the most important step.
